Batch Macro not working in the Workflow

JitenderChawla

Hi,

 

I have created the attached batch macro to delete the files from a specific folder. The macro itself is working fine. However when I insert it into the workflow where I want to use it, it does not work.

 

In the workflow I want the macro to delete the file before proceeding to the next steps however this is not what happens.

 

Could you please advise what I am doing wrong?

@JitenderChawla when you run the bacro in isolation it will run on a subset of data / 1 record.

What's the error you are getting when you run it in the workflow?

A macro must have a Macro Input and Macro Output tool.
